Erm, wait, I don't know what I was thinking there. ssh doesn't let you specify the local address it binds to. All I can say is it works here... However, changing the address on lo0 to 10.9.9.9 results in: debug1: channel 0: new [port listener] debug1: Local forwarding listening on 127.0.0.1 port 8000. bind: Can't assign requested address But: # ifconfig lo0 inet 127.0.0.1 $ ssh -L8000:www.freebsd.org:80 [host] gives [snip] debug1: channel 0: new [port listener] debug1: Local forwarding listening on 127.0.0.1 port 8000. debug1: fd 5 setting O_NONBLOCK debug2: fd 5 is O_NONBLOCK debug1: channel 1: new [port listener] So, it could be an idea to check the output of ifconfig lo0. -- David Taylor davidt_at_yadt.co.uk "The future just ain't what it used to be"Received on Sat Nov 08 2003 - 14:27:27 UTC
